    I've worked in a maximum security prison for over 20 years, and the number of inmates who were raised by single moms or their grandmother alone is staggering. PBD's words ring so true.

      @@amsterdamcowboy9738, of course not! The alpha male leadership role has already been made extinct in such feminized nations, which further fuels the feminization efforts. Only one problem, when the whole nation is feminized, you need us to come bleed and die to rescue you from the criminal types that your effeminate utopia has invited to take over the whole limp lot of you…Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Ceausescu, Franco, etc.
      Turns out, Jesus was right again of course, when He said “…we aren’t wrestling with flesh and blood, but evil spiritual powers and principalities in heavenly places…” As many have said since those words were spoken but ignored: “The only thing required for evil to triumph is for good MEN to do nothing.”
      Keyword: “men,” raised with and by men who embrace all the God-given roles of fathers, husbands, sons, daughters, wives and mothers…rather than dictate against any of them as feminism does. This is Satan’s greatest strategy and it started on day one with Eve and will continue until the Whore of Babylon is thrown into the lake of fire by the returning King of kings who will restore the blessing and prosperity of godly obedience to the Law of the Covenant by following it as the ruler of the Earth, and enforcing Torah with a rod of iron (without wavering, as He commanded us to continue to do in Matthew5:17-19, 7:21-23 and 25:1-12 and defined in Rev14:12, etc…).
      …as if there are no criminals in Europe and “other countries”-pffft

    Single father of 2 here. I've had full custody of both my boys for 5+ years. Their mother was in prison for 3 years and was released in May of 2022. I was hoping she would make efforts to be in our kids lives and she did and it was great to see. They were happy to see her again. That hope was cut short when she overdosed and died in August 2022. Fentanyl was the culprit. RIP Lauren. I will sacrifice all for my kids. There are good fathers out there.

      Alhamdulillah for Islam.☝💚
      *“From among the portents of the Hour are (the following)…the drinking of alcoholic drinks will be very common, and (open) illegal sexual intercourse will prevail…”*
      (Bukhari Volume 1 Hadith 80)
      Also
      *“The Last Hour will not be established until they (wicked people) commit adultery on the roads (public ways).”*
      (Ibn Hibban and Bazzar)
      And
      *“The Hour will come when adultery becomes widespread.”*
      (Al-Haythami, Kitab al-Fitan)
      Well literally no one can dispute this. Alcohol is basically widespread and consumed by majority of people. Alcohol is glorified in the media, tv shows, music, social media etc. The exact same thing can be said about open sexual intercourse. With pornography being rampant in today’s culture it has led to the current state that we are all in.
      However the statistics for this are shocking. About 41% of couples (one or both) have admitted to committing infidelity. This is for sure a clear cut prophecy coming true.
      Furthermore there is more to this.
      The Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
      *“O Muhajirun, (emigrants from Makkah to al-Madinah) you may be afflicted by five things; God forbid that you should live to see them… if fornication should become widespread, you should realise that this has never happened without new diseases befalling the people which their forebears never suffered.”*
      [Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 5, pg. 222-223, Hadith #4019]
      The key word is “diseases”. How scary is it that STDs such as HIV and AIDS are rampant due to sex outside of marriage. STDs are already rampant because more than half of all people will have an STD/STI at some point in their lifetime.
      It is so rampant to the point where we have STD clinics and campaigns about safe sex. Such diseases never existed in ancient times and in today’s world it is a normal occurrence.
      *“There will be an abundance of illegitimate children.”*
      (Al-Muttaqi Al-Hindi, Muntakhab Kanzul Ummaal)
      This is a massive prophecy and is happening right here and right now. Right now if you compare a country like USA they have statistic which show that even in 2012 that 40.7% of children are born out-of-wedlock
      So the numbers are ridiculous and this is a huge modern phenomena. This is a clear cut prophecy coming true.
      Also
      *“Divorces will be a daily occurrence.”*
      (Allamah Safarini, Ahwal Yaum al-Qiyamah)
      Well to be frank divorces are already like this in this day and age. People take divorces as a normal occurrence but we can let the stats speak for themselves. 41 percent of first marriages end in divorce. In America, there is one divorce approximately every 36 seconds. That’s nearly 2,400 divorces per day, 16,800 divorces per week and 876,000 divorces a year
      The media has normalised divorces and now we talk about divorce like it’s nothing. But in actual fact the daily occurrence of divorces is a prophecy by Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم

    Damn Pat, bringing me to tears over here. My dad came to the US with nothing, not knowing the language, not knowing anything in life except work hard. He perfected speaking English, and mastered Refrigeration as his skill set. He does amazingly well for himself as an engineer. While he was striving towards his goals, he had 3 kids to raise alongside my mother. Growing up, he wouldn't miss a day when I had a field trip, a little league game, basketball games in high school. He had always pushed me really hard, and the results are interesting. At 26 now, I went through the cycle most people go through with their parents: you idolize as a kid, demonize as a teenager, and then apologize as an adult because you finally have enough know how to understand the lessons that were being taught. I'm now an engineer as well like my father, but I'm going further by taking the teachings you've taught through valuetainment, and applying them in two companies I'm trying to get off the ground. He's proud that I'm moving to take the family torch even further. I wouldn't have achieved what I've achieved, if it wasn't for him being there...

      *“From among the portents of the Hour are (the following)…the drinking of alcoholic drinks will be very common, and (open) illegal sexual intercourse will prevail…”*
      (Bukhari Volume 1 Hadith 80)
      Also
      *“The Last Hour will not be established until they (wicked people) commit adultery on the roads (public ways).”*
      (Ibn Hibban and Bazzar)
      And
      *“The Hour will come when adultery becomes widespread.”*
      (Al-Haythami, Kitab al-Fitan)
      Well literally no one can dispute this. Alcohol is basically widespread and consumed by majority of people. Alcohol is glorified in the media, tv shows, music, social media etc. The exact same thing can be said about open sexual intercourse. With pornography being rampant in today’s culture it has led to the current state that we are all in.
      However the statistics for this are shocking. About 41% of couples (one or both) have admitted to committing infidelity. This is for sure a clear cut prophecy coming true.
      Furthermore there is more to this.
      The Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
      *“O Muhajirun, (emigrants from Makkah to al-Madinah) you may be afflicted by five things; God forbid that you should live to see them… if fornication should become widespread, you should realise that this has never happened without new diseases befalling the people which their forebears never suffered.”*
      [Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 5, pg. 222-223, Hadith #4019]
      The key word is “diseases”. How scary is it that STDs such as HIV and AIDS are rampant due to sex outside of marriage. STDs are already rampant because more than half of all people will have an STD/STI at some point in their lifetime.
      It is so rampant to the point where we have STD clinics and campaigns about safe sex. Such diseases never existed in ancient times and in today’s world it is a normal occurrence.
      *“There will be an abundance of illegitimate children.”*
      (Al-Muttaqi Al-Hindi, Muntakhab Kanzul Ummaal)
      This is a massive prophecy and is happening right here and right now. Right now if you compare a country like USA they have statistic which show that even in 2012 that 40.7% of children are born out-of-wedlock
      So the numbers are ridiculous and this is a huge modern phenomena. This is a clear cut prophecy coming true.
      Also
      *“Divorces will be a daily occurrence.”*
      (Allamah Safarini, Ahwal Yaum al-Qiyamah)
      Well to be frank divorces are already like this in this day and age. People take divorces as a normal occurrence but we can let the stats speak for themselves. 41 percent of first marriages end in divorce. In America, there is one divorce approximately every 36 seconds. That’s nearly 2,400 divorces per day, 16,800 divorces per week and 876,000 divorces a year
      The media has normalised divorces and now we talk about divorce like it’s nothing. But in actual fact the daily occurrence of divorces is a prophecy by Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم

However, things didn't work out, there was too many outsides sources (family & friends) feeding her bad information. At the end I filed 6 month later again, myself, without a lawer, thinking I could do it without a lawyer. 2 days before court she lawyered up, and so did I. I wasn't able to see my child, who was 3 yrs old for the next 2 years. I missed fathers day, her 3rd birthday, that really messed with my head. Depression started to kick in. At the end I lost time with my child, almost the house I bought, and put over 150k for remodeling. Now she's getting money from me and her new daddy (the government) the lawyer don't give a fuck about you or your children. The judges don't give a fuck about your children well being (even though I had two female judges) she immediately moved into some strange dude's apt. And when I told the judge I don't even know where My daughter is staying cause she was hiding it from me, the judge said... maybe she's going to marry him. FUCK YOU JUDGES! What if he's a pedo, I have nothing but bad thoughts and the system is only helping women get away with making terrible decisions and hurting the kids future. Most men will die for their children to make sure they have a better future... most women don't see it that way. I have too many friends at the moment going through the same thing.

The boomers really fucked things up. But like everything in history it's a slow decline till you eventually start to realize where the fuck the good old times have gone and why the new generation are a bunch of mental basket cases.

    people dont really understand how important it is to have this discussion. i became a father at 20 years of age (im 26 now) and boy let me tell you it wasn't easy whatsoever. My father left when i was just 6 months, and it always stuck out to me as a little boy "how can a grown ass man just leave his bloodline like that, i made a promise to myself that ill never leave my offspring no matter how hard this shit gets. My boy is now 6, and plays sports and is number one in his class. needless to say...I'm a proud father.

      Agreed. Your comment makes me think about how that aspect is not always discussed. It’s not every single father that has been forcibly pushed away from their child by the mother. For the fathers who leave, who chose to not get involved , who can relocated , start new families and move on - I always wonder how they can.
      It’s evil for a mother to block a child from their father unless the father is abusive and dangerous. It’s also evil for a father to abandon his own child.

    Even through a divorce, I fought tooth and nail to make sure I got 50/50. I was not gonna leave my kids with a single mother full time. The court system is stacked against us men, but it is beatable if you have resources. If you don't have money, then I'm sorry the system will screw you over. Unfortunately, serious changes need to be made to our system, including getting rid of no fault divorce. If you cheat or leave then you should be held accountable for your actions (86% of women initiating divorce). Men should not have to have 50k+ in lawyer fees just to be involved in their kids' lives....

    I remember a time when multiple generations lived in the same home and worked together as a unit. It's not one particular thing, it's a series of things. I'm grateful for that time, for that feeling of community, where ppl looked after another person's child regardless of relation, if someone became ill the community rallied around them. I remember seeing families going to church on Sunday, it may be a different church but I remember that. Times have definitely changed.

Then at 13, that man told him my Grandma was taken advantage by a family member and she got pregnant with him, hence HE was not his father. Then it made sense why he was treated so bad. My father aways respected his stepfather, but even us as grandchildren were never treated like the grandkids of my uncle. It was clear that I was 2nd best, never being asked to go fishing or anything, but my Uncle kids did everything with Grandpa. Then when we'd visit Grandpa and Grandma EVERY WEEK, Even Grandma would STUPIDLY tell us how much fun they had during the week if my uncle's kids were over.

I felt very loved deprived, and I looked for love in men. I had no proper guidance, and I repeated the same mistake my mom did, it was a very hard situation. My children also suffered a lot.
    Once I turn towards my spirituality and gained some structured I was able to learn how a family should be and so I got married and life was better.
    In America there are no set of value system for the family!
    We don’t teach kids how to be a father or a mother and how to nourish and raise a family.
    At age 18 I wanted to get married EVERYONE was saying it was wrong.
    Marriage with proper guidance, from elders, support from peers can help people thrive!!
    People have to learn respect, how to treat each other with respect and not encourage sex, like it’s a sports game. The schools are teaching about sex not teaching the values of family, of a spouse and of a mom or dad. People don’t know how to love or give love. There is so much superficiality.

      *“From among the portents of the Hour are (the following)…the drinking of alcoholic drinks will be very common, and (open) illegal sexual intercourse will prevail…”*
      (Bukhari Volume 1 Hadith 80)
      Also
      *“The Last Hour will not be established until they (wicked people) commit adultery on the roads (public ways).”*
      (Ibn Hibban and Bazzar)
      And
      *“The Hour will come when adultery becomes widespread.”*
      (Al-Haythami, Kitab al-Fitan)
      Well literally no one can dispute this. Alcohol is basically widespread and consumed by majority of people. Alcohol is glorified in the media, tv shows, music, social media etc. The exact same thing can be said about open sexual intercourse. With pornography being rampant in today’s culture it has led to the current state that we are all in.
      However the statistics for this are shocking. About 41% of couples (one or both) have admitted to committing infidelity. This is for sure a clear cut prophecy coming true.
      Furthermore there is more to this.
      The Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
      *“O Muhajirun, (emigrants from Makkah to al-Madinah) you may be afflicted by five things; God forbid that you should live to see them… if fornication should become widespread, you should realise that this has never happened without new diseases befalling the people which their forebears never suffered.”*
      [Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 5, pg. 222-223, Hadith #4019]
      The key word is “diseases”. How scary is it that STDs such as HIV and AIDS are rampant due to sex outside of marriage. STDs are already rampant because more than half of all people will have an STD/STI at some point in their lifetime.
      It is so rampant to the point where we have STD clinics and campaigns about safe sex. Such diseases never existed in ancient times and in today’s world it is a normal occurrence.
      *“There will be an abundance of illegitimate children.”*
      (Al-Muttaqi Al-Hindi, Muntakhab Kanzul Ummaal)
      This is a massive prophecy and is happening right here and right now. Right now if you compare a country like USA they have statistic which show that even in 2012 that 40.7% of children are born out-of-wedlock
      So the numbers are ridiculous and this is a huge modern phenomena. This is a clear cut prophecy coming true.
      Also
      *“Divorces will be a daily occurrence.”*
      (Allamah Safarini, Ahwal Yaum al-Qiyamah)
      Well to be frank divorces are already like this in this day and age. People take divorces as a normal occurrence but we can let the stats speak for themselves. 41 percent of first marriages end in divorce. In America, there is one divorce approximately every 36 seconds. That’s nearly 2,400 divorces per day, 16,800 divorces per week and 876,000 divorces a year
      The media has normalised divorces and now we talk about divorce like it’s nothing. But in actual fact the daily occurrence of divorces is a prophecy by Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم

    I don't live in the US. In my secondary school, most of the kids who were a failure (school failure, criminality, drug related stuff), were coming from single mother homes / divorced parents.
    One was living with his father & turned out to be a HVAC technician, with his own company, employing 5 people now.
    When I compare their current lives with mine (my father is a very hands-on, involved in our education since day 1), the difference is night & day !

      It's called market failures. Considering the single parent problem in USA, the problem isn't really fatherlessness only, its the liberal divorce culture. Considering the single parent numbers in US, even if we make child custody laws more fair (which might alleviate part of the issue), it wouldn't solve the problem, that being single parent households. Motherless children aren't going to be doing better than kids with both parents who have an amicable or loving relationship, at least statistically speaking.

When she was 2, I put her into a great nursery where she was only 1 of 8 children of her age. She flourished. I made sure she had some great men in her life. Family and close friends become important. I enrolled her in a Waldorf school, which provides a child centred education. It was expensive but worth every cent. I never brought boyfriends into her life. I didn't want her to wake up to "new daddy" in mommy's bed. We, the mothers, must put our children first in these circumstances.

    I’m dead serious when I say this. I have no father but my mother also slept around. Even after I was born she had a different guy every weekend. I think she was a sex addict, she didn’t believe in birth control because she felt that real sex comes with risk of pregnancy. My mother got pregnant multiple times and used abortion as birth control. There’s three of us, all with three different fathers and only one of us knows who our father is. I’m the oldest, so while my mother was at sex parties, the club, looking for her next one night stand, I was my brothers mother. So, I never had a mother or a father. My mother was all about getting a load dropped in her. The pain of not having a dad never leaves you. But to know it’s because your mother doesn’t know who he is because she slept with so many different men brings a whole other pain that most ppl will never talk about.

    As I write this, my wife and I are on the brink of divorce. The mere thought of it overwhelms me with anxiety because of how it will affect our very young children (3 and 1 y/o respectively). They were obviously born during the pandemic so we have been fortunate to see every single milestone because we both work from home (in NYC mind you). However that has caused a severe strain on the marriage because we have had very little help, not enough time apart to actually miss each other and many other stressors that come with being new parents. No abuse or infidelity, just pure exhaustion and infighting stemming from emotional and physical neglect. Also we don’t have enough healthy outlets, which we know we need but the diagnosis is easier than the remedy implementation. Anyway I say all that to say, I’m trying to hold it together even though the old adage of “don’t stay together just for the kids” rings in the back of my mind. These fatherless home statistics are exactly what I imagined and worse in some instances. No knock on mothers, it’s just simply incalculably difficult to raise a child alone without a father. Children need both spectrums, the masculine and feminine. A fathers natural role is to protect and provide; a mothers role is to nurture and soothe. Sure there are those who grew up with both parents and still have problems. But to try raising a child solo is unnatural. I’m giving it my all.

Children really need a two parent household to successfully develop and succeed in the world, and while there are exceptions, they are not the norm. Virtually every person I've come to build a relationship in my life who has significant problem was either raised by a single parent or by foster care. We need to redirect this ship, because we're leading our society into ruin. We need to start prioritizing and praising family and strong relationships, because this whole Instagram "me me me", casual dating, widespread sexualization, and the rest of it is NOT working.

      Men always chase sex it’s in our biology, what your implying is that all over the world were the family nucleus is working and is successful that “those men don’t chase sex or are monogamous” or at the very least “perfect husband’s to their wives”, my take is Men will be Men but that doesn’t and shouldn’t effect the success of the family, I say the problem is women, feminism and delusion, trying to be men. And the powers of the world backing them so they have false leverage non biological leverage but false leverage and perception that Men are bad because where the only double standard that benefits us as men ( if it is that you want to be that way, non monogamous) we ere exercising it. Women and humanity overall will realize that relationships only benefit the women in a way, so if she wants a successful and healthy family she must and should be feminine, servicesable to her Man and family and stay out the man’s way.. when this is done selflessly it’s ironic that the Man then comes around to be monogamous or respectful. Only when it is earned sincerely by the woman. That’s the only formula for a successful and loving family. Don’t let women gaslight you that your defective as a man, you heard the stats a Man is essential in a happy family life. Women also think they can hop around with out consequences wether they do it openly or discretely, my advice to them is, don’t lie to yourself in the you’ll loose a lot and be regretful, the less you indulge in the delusion that benefits your hedoism the more valuable you are as a women. And lastly to the women who say “ I’ll live alone forever, I’ll never settle” I say, you will have eternal bitterness and confusion causing missery and depression until you die, wether your rich and successful or not. Women repent give in, Men didn’t create life don’t be mad at us, there’s laws and principles in every kingdom.

      Heaven and Hell are real... Is your heart right with God? We can not hide our sins from God. Jesus Christ loves you and He died for our sins. If you will REPENT of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you will be saved and your name will be written into the Book of Life.
      Revelation 20:15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.
      "Salvation Prayer"
      Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you, to confess that I am a sinner. I have done some things in my life that I am not proud of and I repent of my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and that He arose from the grave and that He is alive today. I ask that you forgive me of my sins and come into my heart... I proclaim that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. AMEN...

    Patrick. This is the truth about the future of America. Fathers have a definitive role in the character building of any child. When a father abandons the child, the child is scarred for life.
    It was nice of you to speak on this extremely important subject.

      Fathers don't abandon children, mothers break up homes
      This whole conversation is the typical TradCon *intellectual dishonesty*
      It's not _fatherlessness_ "problem"
      It's *SINGLE MOTHERHOOD* , they are using "fatherlessness" as a *euphemism* for it to subtly shift the blame onto *MEN*
      Blaming *MEN* yet again.
      To the uninitiated and low IQ it seems indistinguishable, but it's a _semantic_ game they're playing, as to not upset the _female_ base.
      You don't get to blame men for poor female choices and behavior.
      This intellectual dishonesty is why the traditional conservatives will _keep losing_ and _keep making the situation worse_ .
      Until you solve the _actual_ problem (hint: it's not the _men_ ) society will continue to collapse.
      Enjoy the decline. 💊
